Loc: lower upstate New York I always thought it was, 'he who laughs last, laughs loudest' but my SO insists it is definitely, 'he who laughs last, laughs loudest'.
I don't see any disagreement there, dody!

Loc: Chicago He who laughs last laughs' last. (the order of the laugh implies an enduring quality)
